Far away from its stamping ground on the Southern Region, Class 73 'Electro-Diesel', No. 73128 'O.V.S Bullied M.B.E' awaits departure time at Furnace Sidings on the Pontypool & Blaenavon Railway. Built at the Vulcan Foundry during 1966, this loco enjoys a rather sedate way of life which is in stark contrast to its former duties on the aforementioned Southern region powering the likes of the 'Gatwick Express' out of London Victoria and other demanding duties for which these locomotives were contructed on 19th June 2011.
